Can windows command line support Linux "cd -"?
You can use pushd
and popd
:
c:\> pushd c:\windows
c:\Windows> popd
c:\>
Windows command-line by itself, no...
But, if needed / interested, you might want to try something like Cygwin or Msys, which will allow you to use a Linux-shell on Windows.
Not sure it's really what you want, but it might solve some or your problems.
(The other solution being to just... use Linux ^^ )

Of course, pushd/popd are great pair of commands, but it cannot switch back once you popped the previous out.
So I made one batch myself, which could maintain a directory history for jumping back, because I have to jump among many directories very often.
Here is the help:
cdx - display all saved path with leading id and name followed if any
cdx <path> - save current path and jump to <path>
cdx :<n|name> - jump to the Nth or named path in the saved list
cdx : - jump to previous path
cdx <n>:<name> - name the Nth path as <name>
cdx rm [:]<n|name> - remove the Nth or named path from the list
cdx clear - clear the list
cdx /help - print out this help
cdx /? - same as above
